Install Windows XP From A USB Flash DriveThough there are many ways to do this, this is the way I do it.This involves more than just making a bootable install USB flash drivebecause I add SP3 and drivers (for post SP3 hardware) to the image.1 - Though the program in the next step will do it, I manually add SP3.- Copy files from the XP CD to a folder called XP.- and extract SP3 to a folder called sp3.(I use forthis)- Open a command prompt window in or navigate to the sp3i386updatefolder.I to this by right-clicking on the update folder andchoosing 'Open command window here.' If you have not added this tweak:- For Windows 7 and Vista download the filechange the file extension from.txt to.reg and double-click it.- For Windows XP download the filechange the file extension from.txt to.reg and double-click it.- In the command window enter update.exe /integrate: X:xp ( change X to the location of theXP folder you created above ).A window will pop up showing the files being integratedfollowed by a 'success' screen.
